News Desk: The World Health Organization (WHO) thinks that the reason for the increase in the number of coronavirus cases in different countries of the world is the failure to quarantine the infected people. World Health Organization Director of Emergency Situations. Michael Ryan said that if he could afford it, he would quarantine everyone he came in contact with. This was revealed in a report in the British media Guardian on Monday (October 19).

According to the report, the World Health Organization (WHO) has been emphasizing the need to isolate or quarantine infected people for up to 14 days to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. The company has been pushing for this process to prevent infection until an effective and recognized antidote to the virus is found. Yet over the past few days the number of victims has begun to rise rapidly in various countries. WHO official said. "I do not believe quarantine has been properly enforced anywhere," said Michael Ryan. Dr. Michael Ryan said the number of infections in more than half of the 47 member states of the European Union in the European Union has risen by almost 50 per cent in the past week.

He added that with this increase, the work of identifying hospital admissions and death rates has also started. He said the good news is that most of the victims are young. In addition, the medical system has improved and the amount of virus in the body of the infected people is less due to maintaining physical distance and using masks. As of Tuesday (October 20th) morning, 11,22,984 people had died of coronavirus in different parts of the world and the number of infected people stood at 4,748,058, according to the World Omiter, a website that keeps statistics on the number of deaths and deaths from coronavirus. 3 crore 3 lakh 52 thousand 917 people have returned home after recovering.

In terms of health, India (6 lakh 30 thousand 617 people) is in the first position, the United States is in the second position (55 lakh 3 thousand 26 people) and Brazil is in the third position (48 lakh 71 thousand 759 people). Coronavirus transmission began in late December last year in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. So far, Covid-19 has spread to 215 countries and regions of the world including Bangladesh.
